OUR HISTORY
Thrapston Venturas FC, initially established in 1960 as Thrapston Football Club, has a rich history in local football.
The Venturas, founded by Nigel Webster, achieved significant success in the 1970s, including four league and cup doubles during a golden era. Initially known as Thrapston Ventura, they joined the Kettering Amateur League, winning multiple championships.
In 1978, they moved to the United Counties League, eventually changing their name to Thrapston Town in 1996.
In 2017, the club revived the Venturas identity, aiming to reconnect with its roots and promote local football under a renewed vision: “Keeping it Local”.
In 2025, eight years into this renewed chapter, the Venturas brand continues to grow from strength to strength, embracing the club’s ethos:
“Local people, playing local football with their mates.”
TO BE A VENTURA
Being a Ventura means more than pulling on a shirt. It means carrying forward four key values:
Work Hard
Have Manners
Be Honest
Look After Each Other
We also believe in recognising the good – catching each other doing something well and saying so. That’s what builds confidence. That’s what builds team spirit.
